Making Green Deal a farce

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — Rhode Island's Supreme Court has dealt a legal setback to Providence in disputes with retired city workers that could prove costly.
The city violated the U.S. and state constitutions in 2012 when it suspended cost-of-living adjustments on retiree pensions for an indefinite amount of time, the court ruled Tuesday.
The high court handed down three decisions in cases brought by employees and unions over how the city sought to fix its finances. The court overturned all or part of lower court decisions that found in favor of the city and dismissed the lawsuits.
A blow to New Green deal when the court and state rules that certain groups are exempt from global warming taxes. 

The most amazing part are the number of idiot economists who did not see the contradiction looming.  To this day we have delusional econ profs who do not see the contradiction.
